Our data set ranges from employment rate to average weekly work hours to share of workers with multiple jobs.

I'll not sure any of those indicates a greater work ethic. Number of hours per week? Really? I could shave 10 hours off mine and still get everything done that I need to. Number of jobs? That's just people trying to survive. Stupid.

From what I've observed, after a certain point the higher pay goes mostly goes toward increased responsibility. When there's a $20 million dollar call to be made (number pulled from thin air) that decision will get passed higher up the command structure until it either hits someone high ranking enough to feel comfortable to make the decision or the person at the very top.

This is a systemic failure that's become ever more apparent in today's economy. A 32 hour work week is not out of line anymore from a productivity standpoint, but hourly people need their hours just to live.

"seriously flawed" would indicate there was some underlying validity to study and that they only made an error. That would be a generous statement in this case. "Random words pulled from the ass" would be more accurate.

.......YOU CAN RAISE WAGES AND GIVE LESS HOURS, ITS THE SAME PAY

I don't think you sit on nearly enough boards to be talking that kind of talk. Back to work!

Usually companies have things called "Limits of Authority" that says what the lowest level is who can make a $20 mil call. So it's not just comfort, it's usually expressly laid out in their job responsibilities.
